Abstract

An angular aperture of an acousto-optical filter upon a linear frequency-modulated (chirp) control signal has been experimentally studied for the first time. The results of studying the spectral and angular dependences of the spectral transmission function of a filter upon a frequency modulation have shown the possibility of an efficient increase of the output optical signal. The value of the optical signal was increased by 2000 times using the selected design of the acousto-optical filter. This makes it possible to obtain a gain in the measurement time or in the value of the detected optical signal. Such an increase of the output signal upon a chirp control signal is provided by the increase of the angular aperture and broadening of the spectral transmission bandwidth together with the required proportional increase of the control signal power.
